Bad Thing: Annie's grandmother dropped her off today and had to use the bathroom. She politely and elegantly informed me that she thought the toilet flushed funny, and that there was crap in the bathtub. Yes, the sewer line had clogged again.
Good Thing: It took me about fifteen minutes to dig up the access to the septic tank, and snake out the pipe. As of today, the cost of having a plumber do this has exceeded the cost of buying my own auger... not to mention the time impact of calling tonight and having him come out tomorrow. We rock. Annie thought it was disgusting, but could not help poking the sludge in the septic tank with a stick.
Crappy...
